Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures saws:
1T has been a light and not particularly impor
ally. However, the turn was n shade better,
with points gain shown at one time, from
which there n slight easing off at the close.
There seemed to be an absence of selling orders
with the usual Saturday inclination to cover,
and this created the demand Buyers were also
a little harred by crop reports showing per
cent. loss i'll condition and the continuation of
drought reports from Texas. Liverpool was
steady and fair spot trade was done here for
export"

I iCHIcAGo, Aug. 6--The weather map this
morning exhibited great scarcity of rain all
through the corn belt, except one or two unim-
portant points in Kansas. This was sufficient
to run up the price 1ac az the opening Septem-
Der was then selling at even 40c, against the
close the night before of j919c, out while the
Dit was filed to about the same extent that il
has been for weeks, or since the drought be-
came such factor, there was notable lack OF
interest The day Of the week bad much TO do
with this for Saturday is nearly always an of
day " one on which open trades are closed, and
no new ones made. Thus it was that for nearly
an hour before there no fluctuation of an
nc Toward the close local speculation
started, buying heavily of May corn, which
irmed all the options up, and final prices were
nearly 1c better than last night for all futures.
The wheat market to-day suffered decline of
I6c early, and later not only regained the loss,
but advanced to point Ss0e15c below the open
ing prices There was some activity when the
bears dragged it down TO CSC for September aud
T3c for December, but the best feeling Of the
day was when the bull shortly before the close,
carried September up to SIC and December back
TO 74c There were large quantities 81 long
wheat thrown on the market on It's way down to
CSC The crowd claim 70 have traced all dump
ing to one prominent operator. There was
light trade in oats, and the speculative market
was without special features. Prices iiuctuated
narrowly and closed ISGLLlc better than yester-
day for deliveries beyond August for cash and
this months delivery. The tendency was down
ward owing TO continued large receipts. Pro
visions were closely watched, and toward the
close at least strong uildertone was plainly
noticeable Early in the session, however, the
bear side had the call for time. The closings
showed an advance of 2l405c on lard; while
short ribs averaged 2l9c lower for the near
deliveries. January short ribs were advanced
